CFO Brian Dean is leaving the organization.

Sutter Health, a not-for-profit integrated health delivery system headquartered in Sacramento, California, with 24 acute care hospitals and over $14 billion in total revenue, has announced that chief financial officer Brian Dean will be leaving the organization in July of this year.

Dean has been serving as CFO since July 2020 and is leaving Sutter to become CFO of an aviation company in Houston. Sutter Health also announced that Di Benedetto, senior vice president, and general counsel, is also leaving the organization.

Earlier this year, Sutter Health announced that Mark Sevco had been appointed as chief operating officer. Sevco was brought in to enhance the organization’s clinical operations, and patient access, and create stronger physician relationships.

"I look forward to working with the entire Sutter Health team to help deliver an exceptional and connected patient, physician, and caregiver experience," Sevco said in a release announcing his appointment. "Sutter has an impressive reputation for providing high-quality care, and I am eager to collaborate across the organization to further improve access and inspire patients to live healthy lives and build stronger communities. By operating with greater agility and collective purpose as a unified Sutter Health, we will also ensure we remain financially strong, elevate the voices of our physicians, and make Sutter the place people want to work and build lifelong careers."
